Given that whisky is generally considered the most appropriate match for haggis I thought it would be interesting to check out what Britain’s top whisky experts have to recommend for Burns Night:

Me applying myself to what I laughably call my job 🙄 Two highlights from the remarkable meal @osiprestaurant - the salad with smoked eel and eel mayonnaise and the soft as butter (my description, not the wording on the menu) hot smoked trout. Then what looks like a minor massacre on the tablecloth when I failed to demolish the beetroot taco in one bite. Great lunch, great company in the form of fellow Bristolian @5oclockapron. Thanks @merlin_johnson for the treat. #guestMy entry point into London being Paddington I don’t often make it across to Hackney but it was worth it for last night’s meal @miga.restaurant. Delicious tofu - not words I generally use together - wonderfully light and airy, japchae noodle salad and pork belly with king oyster mushroom. A modern take on Korean food from a charming family-run restaurant. More on my Substack shortly. . . . #koreanfood #tofu #japchae #porkbelly #hackney #londonrestaurantsOn a hazy March morning @clevedonpier was just a joy - like stepping back into the 50s except for the rows of plaques that line the sides commemorating births, deaths and love affairs. Resolved to go more often. #clevedonpier #clevedom #pier #seaside #somersetWhat a way to kick off a meal: potato beignets with anchovy mayo and parmigiano reggiano. Then two exemplary main courses, cod and mussels with curried crab sauce (a bit like a mouclade) and pork schnitzel with brown butter capers and (more) anchovies. Not many restaurants have main courses that are as good as their starters but @1yorkplace_bristol is one of them. So lucky to have it as a local. . . . #beignets #cod #mussels #schnitzel #1yorkplace #clifton #bristol #bristolfood Follow on Instagram
